Yet another change to my army list. Probably the last one considering the tournament is this weekend. The new scenarios prompted a little tweaking in my list. Not a lot, but still some changes were necessary to get the most out of my list.
New list is now
-HQ-
Belial - Claws
Librarian
-Troops-
Deathwing Squad 1 - Heavy Flamer, Chainfist, 1 Pair of Claws, 1 Thunder Hammer & Shield
Deathwing Squad 2 - Cyclone, Chainfist, Apothecary
Deathwing Squad 3 - Assault Cannon, Chainfist, 1 Thunder Hammer &
Deathwing Squad 4 - Assault Cannon, Chainfist
Tactical Squad - Missile Launcher, Flamer, Powerfist, Drop Pod
-Heavy Support-
Land Raider
Land Raider Crusader
Predator - Lascannon Sponsons, Autocannon Turret
-Elite-
Dreadnought - Twin-linked Lascannon, Missile Launcher
-Fast Attack-
Landspeeder Squadron - 3 Multi-Meltas, 1 Heavy Flamer, 1 Typhoon Missile launcher
Contains 5-6 scoring units and 21 KPs according to scenario 3. Not too bad I think and I stand a reasonable chance against most opponents I wager. The only thing I'm not sure about is the Librarian. I could put a Grey Knight Brother Captain but he only has 1 wound and I have to pay for his psychic powers. I could put a chaplain instead but Fearless is kinda wasted and I don't know how reliably I can get the charge off with my crusader squad.
Hopefully I can get a few test games in before this weekend to put the army through its paces.
Don't rely on the GKs too much, we may well be losing them soon to their new Codex.
ReplyDeleteI think more MM/HF or TLLC/ML Ven Dreads would help get some tough and mobile firepower at range. MM/HF Speeders are always handy, but it didn't look like scenario 3 was as big a deal as you may have thought.
I don't normally go the dual Raider route, I generally prefer walking and field more support, but I can see it working.
